Bug report demo projects
I have seen that some bug reports come with little information on how to reproduce the bug. I wonder if this is because there is no stackblitz or jsbin for C++ projects...
What we could do instead is offer some demo iOS and Android projects which people can take and use for crash and bug reports. Maybe we have such projects actually already. What would be great too is if the MapLibre GL Native version could easily be switched in these demo projects such that we can see when a problem arose...
And what would also help is enabling "bug report" and "feature request" GitHub issue templates. This gives people some structure on how to phrase stuff.
Would you make this example projects as part of this repo or in separate "example" repos? Note that for Qt we already build a minimal example as it also acts as an integration test.
That's a good question. I don't know... Having it in a separate repo might be good for the following reasons:
- Code base is smaller, so cloning is faster
- Cose base is smaller, so it is easier for people to get started with the demo
What is the Qt example?
https://github.com/maplibre/maplibre-gl-native/tree/main/platform/qt/app
It does not have any dedicated build setup (it builds as part of MapLibre), but honestly if one wants to make a Qt app, this is out of scope of this project.
Note that I do plan to setup some docs which should cover "How to include in my project?" question.
Ah nice. We could also fork https://github.com/aws-samples/amazon-location-samples and use the MapLibre demo tiles there. I agree that it is out-of-scope of MapLibre GL Native to explain to people how to make a Qt app, there must be already great resources for this. But I think it would really help us a lot if contributors could share a minimal running program which reproduces a bug they see...
